Re: Morgan Heritage 1 Ton ?

I own one of the Heritage one tons, she was originally called "Seagull" and was sailed out of Ft. Myers, Florida. She is a great boat and loves the wind.
Just an FYI, there were only 20 of these hulls built in the Clearwater facility. Who knows what would have happened if there had not been a fire.

Re: Morgan Heritage 1 Ton ?

I also own one of these amazing boats. I'm interested in finding out what the design below decks was as it came from the factory. Anyone have some drawings or pics?

Re: Morgan Heritage 1 Ton ?

Late post but another happy Heritage 1-ton owner. I bought "Varmint" in Muskegon, MI. I bought it in 1994 from John Wright. I am the third owner. My wife and I have enjoyed Varmint for many years. We made the trip from Lake Mich to Florida and the Gulf with 3 trips to the Bahamas. Varmint has returned to Mich and now slips at Arcadia, Mich. I would be happy to email you some pics and share what little I know.

Re: Morgan Heritage 1 Ton ?

There was both a Morgan One Ton and a Heritage One Ton, both designed by Charlie Morgan. The Morgan One Ton had a very strange keel that raked back at a very steep angle. The Heritage One Ton had a typical IOR Trapazoid. I think both were sold as 36 footers.

Re: Morgan Heritage 1 Ton ?

Hi everyone,
I have a what I believe to be a Heritage 1 ton. Although, you wouldn't know it in the title.
It reads,"Morgan 37' " 1976. This boat is or was red in color and goes by the name of "Duce Is Wild". Shes in ruff shape, but I love working on her and seeing the shape I fell for, come alive. My boat had 4 bunks, a head and a little galley. Used for off shore racing only. It did not require much. Does Any one mind showing me cabin pictures of there Morgan 1 ton. I'd like to see how she should look like. My boat is in my yard in Amesbury M.A.

Re: Morgan Heritage 1 Ton ?

Hi,
I'm new to this site and I also own a Heritage One ton. I bought mine in in 1994. I'm not a racer but have used it as a cruiser. The boat now lives in Arcadia, MI on Lake Michigan. I retired in 1999 and sailed the boat from Lake Mich to Lake Erie, through the Erie Canal to the Hudson, to New York City, down the ICW to Florida. The boat stayed in Florida for 8 yrs. We visited the Bahamas three times, sailed through the Keys, to the Tortugas and up the gulf to Tampa. In 2010 we sailed the boat back to MI. I try to do most of my own repairs and service, so over the past 18 yrs I have come to know my boat quite well. I expect to be sailing "Varmint" for as many yrs in the future as possible. I would like to get to know other owners of those 20 or so hulls to compare notes and share our appreciation of a fine boat.

I purchased 1 around 1977/78 in toronto named "jackal" yellow hull. Can't remember hull #.. Renamed "ommadawn".. Kept her for 10 yrs with many upgrades including imron to light grey w/red waterline, interior forepeak refinish in slatted teak, holding tank, and other usual stuff.. Sold her out of midland in georgian bay, canada... Boat was moved to quebec and i lost track after that.. Really loved that boat and still wish i still owned her...

I crewed on a Heritage one-ton in a race a couple years ago and fell in love with the boat. I'm now looking to buy a boat and one of these beauties has come available nearby. Anyone have any advice on what to look out for on a '76?
